The role of the speech therapist in a language school

Dawn House School, Rainworth, Notts

A language school provides a total remedial and learning environment for the language disordered child, in which the speech therapist can ficnction most effectively by participating in a staff team. Team members from different disciplines make separate but complementary contributions to the remedial programme, but productive fusion of these approaches is not achieved without effort and good will. The therapist's role can be defined (1) with other professionals as communicator, both giving and receiving information, and coordinator of language programmes, (2) with parents as informant, listener and developer of skills, (3) with the children as diagnostician, therapist and - constantly - learner.
